Christopher Rufo dropped the bombshell that Harris “plagiarized at least a dozen sections of her criminal justice book, Smart on Crime.” ... With the help of Dr. Stefan Weber, an internationally famous “plagiarism hunter,” Rufo provided one jaw-dropping example after another of Harris directly copying and pasting paragraph after paragraph into her book that were written by others. She did this...

This morning as I read several sections of my Bible about Solomon and his rise to power, several things finally sunk into my thick skull. When Solomon took the thrown after King David, he dispatched his enemies from within, even unto inside the where the tabernacle was kept. Fine. That was how things would be done, history. As I sometimes do after the daily reading, I flip through my Bible almost absent mindedly. Today, that absent mindedness fell upon the Wisdom of Solomon Chapter 12. As I read through the chapter, I became awestruck at a few passages that reflected...

If Vice President Kamala Harris wins the election and Democrats flip the House and keep the Senate, the U.S. would witness a powerful resurgence of progressive policymaking across virtually every sector.

Need another reason to homeschool your children? Well, Gwen Walz, wife of Minnesota Governor and VP nominee, Tim Walz, apparently has a new mission in life—reading children’s books about gay dads and their cats. While the state grapples with real issues like education failure, rising crime rates, and crumbling infrastructure, Gwen is preoccupied with what? Trying to convince your kids that two homosexual men and a cat are the pinnacle of family values. Who knew that queer propaganda would be disguised as a quirky story about avoiding bath time?

Kamala Harris, the unelected Democratic nominee for president—yes, unelected, because no one asked her to be the face of the party but here she is—has now dropped her latest gem of wisdom upon the American people. And what is it this time? At first, I thought this was fake, a spoof account. I thought this couldn’t be real…but it’s real. And she’s going to “fix” the lives of Black men by handing out free cash and legalizing weed. That’s right, ladies and gents—Kamala Harris actually believes that the key to black men’s success in America is pot and government handouts....

On Tuesday, CNN host Chris Wallace said on ABC’s “The View” that former President Donald Trump is “sticking to the basement” like then-presidential candidate Joe Biden did in 2020. Co-host Sara Haines asked, “Your dad, the late, great Mike Wallace, was an incredible investigative journalist and one of the original correspondents on 60 Minutes. What did you think of the former president refusing to do a 60 Minutes interview, which has been a tradition for more than half a century?” Wallace said, “You know, I don’t have a firm answer in terms of but I have a gut feeling. And...

Vance highlighted all the things that went wrong with the 2020 election without taking the Democrats’ bait.. The legacy media continues to push Sen. J.D. Vance to say Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, with Martha Raddatz on Sunday’s “This Week” being the latest in a string of interviewers pressing the vice-presidential candidate on that question. While Vance responded as before, that “of course Donald Trump and I believe there were problems in 2020,” the full exchange revealed that the fundamental flaw is in the question — not Vance’s answer. For a full two minutes during yesterday’s interview, Raddatz demanded...
